Today, Netflix unveils the premiere date, first images and character descriptions of its new coming-of-age comedy/drama, Sex Education.

Launching worldwide with eight, one-hour episodes on January 11, 2019, the series is a modern portrayal of sexual and romantic experiences, friendships and contemporary young adult life… and you’ll relive high school memories along the way.

Gardner Eliot is the first true Martian – born there in 2018 – and the first true Martian orphan (his mother died in childbirth). When he meets Tulsa, another orphan, via the Internet (by 2034 we have instantaneous internet connections between Earth and Mars!), he falls in love.

Ender’s Game looks great, has some very good performances and absolutely spectacular CG visuals. As a blockbuster, it has heart, emotion and action. What it doesn’t have is any anything more than a cursory examination of the themes that made the novel so powerful.

Ender’s Game is a film about ethics on a grand scale, in a spectacular environment. Summit Entertainment has a released a behind-the-scenes video that gives us a glimpse into the building of the universe in which the story is set. It’s pretty mind-boggling.

Check it out after the jump. Ender’s Game is in theaters on November 1st.
